ひかえめに言っても、これは愛 [Hikaeme ni Ittemo, Kore wa Ai] #2

The cover of this second volume from Kōdansha's Dessert imprint sets a sweetly charged tone — a pink-haired girl and a dark-haired boy lean close together beside a motorbike, surrounded by soft bursts of color that feel like fireworks catching the moment just before something tender tips over into something more. Creator Fuji Momo's art carries that warm, flutter-in-the-chest energy that shojo romance does best, all loose lines and pastel warmth. If the subtitle — Love, That's an Understatement — tells you anything, it's that this series wears its heart openly and without apology.
